+ * Userspace can perform a GETPLANE ioctl to retrieve information about a
+ * plane.
+ *
+ * To retrieve the number of formats supported, set @count_format_types to zero
+ * and call the ioctl. @count_format_types will be updated with the value.
+ *
+ * To retrieve these formats, allocate an array with the memory needed to store
+ * @count_format_types formats. Point @format_type_ptr to this array and call
+ * the ioctl again (with @count_format_types still set to the value returned in
+ * the first ioctl call).
+ *
+ * Between one ioctl and the other, the number of formats may change.
+ * Userspace should retry the last ioctl until this number stabilizes. The
+ * kernel won't fill any array which doesn't have the expected length.
